  • I guess the dumb one just shows a number, the smart one will also tell you "it's not bones or muscles but fat, dumbass" and tell a data broker so the health insurance company can update your plan accordingly

  • I overwrote my posts and comments on my 50k-karma account with links to Lemmy during the API protest and left. I have the contents saved and respond to people who ask for it (on Lemmy of course). Still, my Contributor Quality Score remains "High" (tier 4/5) to this day.

  • The house I live in is all brick walls and my 12-year-old phone (Sony Xperia Z) has connectivity issues just 5 m and one wall away, RSSI of -70 dBm and below unless in specific places and orientations. Radios have improved quite a bit since.

  • There are 3 main forms of IP: patents (not relevant here), copyright and trademarks. Without consent of the holder, copyright only runs out on a time basis but what you're calling IP falls into the "trademark" category, which don't run out if continuously used by the holder. Some trademarks have become genericized and therefore invalid but this is a concern with product names, not fictional characters. There is no precedent in which fanon became so popular it overruled a trademark, because it can't be published officially (it is easy to sue a single artist, it's impossible to stop millions of people from calling any moving stairs "escalators" despite the former OTIS trademark).

    Did you mean fanon "so different a trademark doesn't apply"? That would be a different character entirely.

  • Still up on the website:

    Werewolf Cream Glazing

    Ingredients

    • puff pastry sheets, 1 package
    • puff pastry sheets, 1 package
    • puff pastry sheets, 1 package
    • werewolf-harvested honey, 1/4 cup
    • water, 2 tbsp
    • werewolf-vanilla extract, 1 tsp
    • cream provided by 14 werewolf boyfriends, 1/2 cup
    • werewolf cream glaze, To coat

    I'd expect each of the 14 boyfriends to deliver more than 10 ml of cream, but who am I to judge?

  • This is a great time for the engineer to exert leverage.

    "Yes, I can fix it in hours. Here are my demands:

    • $200,000
    • I'll also push a firmware update to all your devices that allows setting any address for the server and exposes all functionality in a Home Assistant API, and you won't ever disable this in current or future devices
    • You'll offer a free locally-connected button/knob device to any customer owning an affected product, or a free service to upgrade the products with on-device controls
    • In any social media posts, press releases, customer communication or interviews regarding today's outage, you have to say that plumbing that requires a server connection is a bad idea
